Unfortunately no. The remains of the lesions will always be there whether it's scarred , bruising or skin discoloration. Even after the lesions have closed completely. It is a lifelong condition. What I have found is that depression And stress has the worst effect on my flares. Over the winter I was incredibly depressed and everything seemed like a crisis. And I was in a flare that lasted almost three months. And then I found something positive to hold on to and i'm out of the flair and things that normally would trigger my flares due to stress aren't as bad. I still have lesions that leak and scar , but the other symptoms see much more manageable. So if there's anything you can find that brings you a little bit of joy. A smile on your face hold on to it and make that your talisman. Make that your point of strength it's hard but worth it.
